In Korea, it is significantly deficient in the study about tourism geology, which is a new branch of applied geology that would support the growth of ecotourism world-wide. The objectives of this study include (1) the promotion in geodiversity of tourism geology using the data for type and distribution patterns of geological and geomorphological landscape resources and (2) the redoubling of diversity in the environmental interpretation programs offered by the Korea National Parks Service (KNPS). Our field study discovered 212 geological and geomorphological landscape resources distributed in the area of Taean seashore national park. Coastal topography is the most discovered type followed by weathering topography. It is our belief that the aforementioned resources can be utilized as a tourism geological site in assisting the public to understand geological science and to draw their attention and interests after sorting and filtering it out through discussions with geologists and geomorphologists of a consortium. Furthermore, in order to promote the activation of developing user-oriented geotourism sites, it is recommended to keep monitoring on demographical characteristics of geotourists, behavioral characteristics of geotouconrists within the geotourism site and ducting analysis for developing geotourism program and events. And, the research support of geological engineering dealing with the estimation of weathering degree and the development of conservation techniques for the object of geotourism along with the research of environmental science aspects will improve the activation of tourism geology.

Spatial data integration using multiple geo-based data sets has been regarded as one of the primary GIS application issues. As for this issue, several integration schemes have been developed as the perspectives of mathematical geology or geo-mathematics. However, research-based approaches for statistical/quantitative assessments between integrated layer and input layers are not fully considered yet. Related to this niche point, in this study, spatial data integration using multiple geoscientific data sets by known integration algorithms was primarily performed. For spatial integration by using raster-based GIS functionality, geological, geochemical, geophysical data sets, DEM-driven data sets and remotely sensed imagery data sets from the Ogdong area were utilized for geological thematic mapping related by mineral potential mapping. In addition, statistical/quantitative information extraction with respective to relationships among used data sets and/or between each data set and integrated layer was carried out, with the scope of multiple data fusion and schematic statistical assessment methodology. As for the spatial integration scheme, certainty factor (CF) estimation and principal component analysis (PCA) were applied. However, this study was not aimed at direct comparison of both methodologies; whereas, for the statistical/quantitative assessment between integrated layer and input layers, some statistical methodologies based on contingency table were focused. Especially, for the bias reduction, jackknife technique was also applied in PCA-based spatial integration. Through the statistic analyses with respect to the integration information in this case study, new information for relationships of integrated layer and input layers was extracted. In addition, influence effects of input data sets with respect to integrated layer were assessed. This kind of approach provides a decision-making information in the viewpoint of GIS and is also exploratory data analysis in conjunction with GIS and geoscientific application, especially handing spatial integration or data fusion with complex variable data sets.

The complex resistivity method is an exploration technique that can obtain various characteristic information of underground media by measuring resistivity and phase in the frequency domain, and its utilization has recently increased. In this paper, a three-dimensional inversion algorithm for the CR data was developed to increase the utilization of this method. The Poisson equation, which can be applied when the electromagnetic coupling effect is ignored, was applied to the modeling, and the inversion algorithm was developed by modifying the existing algorithm by adopting comlex variables. In order to increase the stability of the inversion, a technique was introduced to automatically adjust the Lagrangian multiplier according to the ratio of the error vector and the model update vector. Furthermore, to compensate for the loss of data due to noisy phase data, a two-step inversion method that conducts inversion iterations using only resistivity data in the beginning and both of resistivity and phase data in the second half was developed. As a result of the experiment for the synthetic data, stable inversion results were obtained, and the validity to real data was also confirmed by applying the developed 3D inversion algorithm to the analysis of field data acquired near a hydrothermal mine.

GRASS는 GIS 공개 소프트웨어로서, 이의 효과적인 활용은 비용 면이나 기술 개발 및 축적 면에서 국가적으로 중요하다. 생물, 지질, 환경 등의 과학 기술 분야에서는 방대한 자료를 3차원적으로 표현하고 분석해야만 하는 경우가 많이 있다. 본 논문은 GRASS의 3차원 기능을 이용하여 식물의 서식 분포를 시각적으로 표현하는 방법과 실제 구현 사례를 기술한다. 지역으로는 내장산을 선택하였으며, 환경부에서 제공하는 실제 내장산 DEM 자료를 사용하였다. 식물 분포 표시를 위해 GRASS가 제공하는 컬러-기반 3차원 디스플레이 기능을 사용하였다.

본 연구에서는 2006년 태풍 에위니아 이후 고탁수 문제가 발생하였던 소양호유역을 중심으로 탁수원인이 되는 토사유실지역을 효과적으로 선정하기 위한 방법론을 제시하였다. 특히 토사유실모델을 통해 분석된 결과와 함께 하천주변 대단위 농경지 특성, 경사지 및 제방 특성 등을 고려하여 탁수원인지역을 선정하는 기법을 소개하였다. 또한 농경지별 작물종류 자료구축을 위한 모바일 GIS 자료구축 방법 및 지질코드별 가중치평가 기법을 제시함으로서 보다 체계적인 탁수원인지역 조사가 가능하게 되었다.

태백산 광화대는 1960년대부터 광물자원에 대한 조사 및 개발이 활발하게 이루어지고 있는 지역으로 지질관련 자료들이 많이 축적되어 있으므로 자료의 이용이 용이하고 예측 모델링을 적용한 결과와 기존 결과의 비교가 가능한 지역이다. 본 연구에서는 태백산 광화대 지역의 금속광상의 부존가능지역 예측을 위하여 지화학 자료를 이용하여 주제도를 작성하였다. 부존가능지역 예측을 위하여 사용한 기법은 GIS 기반의 예측 기법 중하나인 Weights of Evidence 모델링 기법으로 연구지역에 시범 적용함으로써 국내 환경에의 적용 가능성을 검토하고 구조선과 광상간의 공간적 상관성을 확인하였다.

We perform MT soundings in Bendigo, the northern part of Victoria, Australia, to investigate the deep subsurface geologic structure. The primary purpose of this survey is to figure out whether the discontinuity such as faults extends northward. The time series of MT signal were measured over 11 days at 71 measurement stations together with at remote reference, which help enhance the quality of impedance estimation and its interpretation. The impedances are estimated by robust processing using remote reference technique and then inverted with 2D MT 2D inversion. We can see that known faults are clearly imaged in MT 2D inversion. Comparing resistivity images from MT 2D inversion with interpreted boundary from reflection seismic exploration, two interpretations match well each other.
